how old are the children? when i was a teenager and went to italy for the first time with my mom and sisters, the tiny fiat my uncle had couldn't take all of us to his house so he said i could go on a train to a station nearby (about 90 minute train ride). sure... don't speak the language, had never been abroad, had no idea where i was going. but sure. 
it was character building. 
it was character building. That does sound like an adventure haha
I was down in DC last night for dinner. In the city regular was $5.99 and premium was $6.89. Shocking!

Strategic reserves are at the lowest since the 80s, mid june pricing is looking ugly for gas prices. If things dont improve, folks who said prices are moving up to the $10 mark can get there chicken dinner.

I've often wondered how these gas stations make any money. The land they are on is really valuable, very few people buy gas there because the prices are insane, and they don't have repair shops etc.

Gouging would require lack of supply (typically during an emergency shortage) where the consumer has little to no choice but to buy your product, water, food, gas.... at a so-called price gouging level. Otherwise, free to advertise and sell at any price ya want.

Believe it or not it's mostly from the convenience stores. The gas revenue goes to the oil companies, at least I think. It's like movies, they don't make one penny in ticket sales... it's ALLLL from the food and drinks.

What about 711s? They aren't in TN but in California they were always packed and I don't think they do gas.
But yeah, I mean they'lll take a 50 cent bag of chips and sell it for $3-4. It adds up!!!
